WTT retro's for stock HID
Like title states, I want to trade my retro'd rx330 projector headlamps with d2s bulbs (4300k) for stock HID headlamps and bulbs.
I bought these from OLDDOG here on the forums, they were black housed headlamps and I didn't like the look so I took them apart, pulled out the retro'd bowls and put these in my stock headlights. What I didn't know (and wasn't told) was that they aren't perfectly aligned. They are a little crooked, not bad, but I don't have pictures of the cut offs yet to show you. You can still drive with these fine, they don't blind anybody, and still put out good light.
I'd rather have stock HID headlamps, and do another retro later.
Pictures:
SO...here's the deal.
Stock HID headlamps + bulbs = Straight trade for retro'd plus 4300k phillips bulbs. I pay my shipping, you pay yours.
Stock Halogen headlamps+ $500 for my retro'd headlamps and HID kit (xenon depot, bought here on the forums) The cost of the HID kit and projectors run about that much. That's also including shipping (from me to you), and paypal.
This is now the only set of headlights I have, so I'd need some before I can ship out to you.
If you are local enough and want to meet up to trade, that's fine with me, but be prepared to take off your own headlights and bumper, I'll not be liable for damages to your car. I messed up the driver side of my bumper a little bit messing with that stupid nut on the fender. I want to smack the designer of the car for putting that nut there! Anyways, that's the trade.
Location: Modesto, Ca.
Payment: Cash, trade, paypal.
EDIT
NEW deal.
For the low price of $400.00, I will pull out the projectors bowls, and put in my stock halogen reflector bowls, and ship you the Projectors in the bowls and the HID kit.
I purchased headlights that needed way more work than mine, I took the my headlights apart, and put in these projectors. Those headlights were purchased for $310 shipped. You can ask OLDDOG.
I purchased the HID kit of Xenondepot, brand new, for $359 plus shipping. The bulbs are oem phillips 4300k (D2S) and they don't even have 100 hours on them, they are probably still needing to color shift a bit.
I'm giving you the prices I purchased them for, and just showing you that I'm already losing almost $300 off this sale of projectors/bowls and the HID kit.
If you want just the projectors in the bowls, it will be $150 shipped.
If you want just the HID kit, it'll be $250 shipped.

ok bro,
i don't really have to post this but i guess i can use it as a bump for you anyways. when you stress the point that i didn't tell you they were not perfectly aligned, i don't know whether you are saying i was dubious or made a honest mistake.
anyways the alignment looked straight to me and if anything it was put together with silicone. so you can just peel it off, straighten it and silicone it back. i clearly explained how the headlights were before anything.plus the headlights were not sealed back so you could make any adjustments you deemed necessary.
i have assisted a few people here (locals)with their retros for free cos it is an interesting thing to do and would not go try to decieve anybody.
so except if i misinterpreted your post, then i guess all is well.
good luck.

I believe that's the 'squirrel finders'. It's a tab that can be pushed closed, it lights up the upper trees a bit, you can research it more on HIDplanet.com.
I PM'd you sleeper, but if you are up in tracy on the weekends, i could meet up with you next weekend.
